My faves are Coco and Kiki but I haven't been able to find any names I like to go with them (correction, can't get DH to agree on anything).</p> <p>I think Maverick would be a super cute full name for Mavi! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/baby-girl-name-help#post-1563602 Fri, 11 Apr 2014 15:38:20 +0000 psw27 1563602@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>An option for Catherine would be initials based on her middle name. I know a CJ who is Catherine Jean, always sounded cool to me. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/baby-girl-name-help#post-1563572 Fri, 11 Apr 2014 15:21:11 +0000 PurplePeony 1563572@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Have you thought of Kitty as a nickname for Catherine?

(We have two living Catherines and like 8 who have passed in both of our families and she is the only one who has ever gone by Kate.)</p> <p>@bushelandapeck: I think it would be awesome on a little boy but I am not sure I can pull that one off! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/baby-girl-name-help#post-1563443 Fri, 11 Apr 2014 14:22:04 +0000 rachiecakes 1563443@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Maverick is a really cool girl name!</p> <p>I worked with a photographer once that had a daughter named "Ziza", she was named after a friend they met in Italy.

I suppose it's more of a boy sounding name but I like it for a girl too! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/baby-girl-name-help#post-1563434 Fri, 11 Apr 2014 14:20:05 +0000 Mae 1563434@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I suppose it is unhelpful to say that I absolutely love the name Kate? I can't really think of other more unique nicknames for Catherine/Katherine but I do like it :) </p> <p>The only full name I can think of for Mavi is Maeve, which is pretty. Or you could make it a nickname spanning her first/middle name like if you named her something starting with an Ma- and middle name Violet. Mary Violet? Margot Violet? Maggie Violet? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/baby-girl-name-help#post-1563429 Fri, 11 Apr 2014 14:18:00 +0000 pelikila 1563429@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>What about Maven? Or for a nickname of Catherine do Rine or Rinnie. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/baby-girl-name-help#post-1563414 Fri, 11 Apr 2014 14:12:09 +0000 Cole 1563414@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We still have plenty of time but it's bugging me that we don't have a name yet- or really even a short list. I love Lena, Ellis, Violet, Juliet and Scarlet. I also love cutesy nicknames like Vivi, Gigi, Zuzu but they need a great name to go with them and my husband vetoed Vivienne and Genevieve.</p> <p>My husband's favorite is Mavi which I like but I wish it was short for something. He also likes Emily, Catherine and Julia but I don't think he loves any of them. Catherine is my favorite if I could come up with an interesting nickname option.</p> <p>I know I am ridiculous but I wind up not liking a lot of names I might otherwise like because of people I know with those names. </p> <p>Any suggestions for me? Especially a full name for Mavi or a nickname for Catherine other than the obvious ones? </p>
